I Hope You Have A Daughter

I hope everytime you look at her you think of me.

I Hope You Have A Daughter

I hope one day, you have a daughter. I hope your daughter looks at you and you see the world in her eyes. I hope your daughter turns you into the man you never were. Most of all, I hope your daughter never gets used or abused the way you used and abused me.

I hope your daughter never wakes up in the middle of the night shaking because of what some disgusting pig she went to school with did to her. Seeing your name makes me cringe and die a little bit inside. Or maybe, my inside is already dead because of you. But I am not alone, nor am I giving up. After countless months I have finally learned that our interaction was not my fault. I hope you have a daughter and she never has to deal with that.

No website, not even Tumblr, can truly show you what it feels like to have a date with the devil. I will try to do my best to let you see into the chapter of my life I call hell.

I go to bed but then wake up with flashbacks and nightmares. I wake up by a panic attack warning me that my nightmare isn’t real anymore. I go about my day trying not to relieve my worst nightmare, yet am faced with panic attack after panic attack. Then I go back to bed. Repeat. Trying to survive this hell is exhausting. I hope you have a daughter and every time you look at her you're reminded of the man's daughter you destroyed, wishing the same does not happen to her.

I hope you meet a sexist, misogynistic pig like yourself, and he talks about women like you talked about women and treated them. I hope you think of your daughter. And I hope you feel the blind anger I feel today. I hope someday you'll look back and be ashamed of your actions.

If you do have a daughter, I hope you never have to watch her struggle the way you made my father watch me struggle. I hope you never look at your daughter and wish she wasn't hurting. I hope you never have to watch your daughter hate men because a man forced himself on to her.

I hope you have a daughter someday and I hope no one ever puts in her the position you put me in.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
